Canyon Waterfall

 

I’ve been photographing this waterfall for years and ended up naming it 'Devil’s Tears.' I don't remember what sparked the name, but it stuck.

Social Life of Tundra Swans

 

When you watch Swans for quiet a while, you begin to notice how busy their social life is and sometimes a little bit funny from my point of view.

Generally, life is good!

Let's Not Join Others

While watching a group of Tundra Swans dozing on the snow, I noticed a flock of Swans high in the sky, they were heading toward the sleeping group. I watched in awe how a noisy group of Swans have landed on the icy shore. It was a pretty large group and I had to photograph it in fragments.

In the photo above, a group of napping Swans calmly continues to doze, they know that they would not be disturbed by others.  Tundra Swans respect the privacy of their peers.

I was sure that the newly arrived Swans would join the sleeping group, but they swept past it to my astonishment.

Spring in the Wasatch Mountains - VI. The Canyon Road

This road I know by heart. It leads through the canyon getting more narrow and curvy. It took a while for me to get used to drive on this road, right now I know every little pocket, every little curve of it.

If you look at upper middle you can see the red brick condos. I live in one of them.

The road that leads on the left will bring you to the Bonnevile Shoreline trail. 

When I started hiking this spring I was looking for my trail and wasn't sure will I find it or not. It's like the sky, the flying birds that don't leave footprints to follow.  I believe that I found my trail. It's the longest trail in the Wasatch mountains and has a beautiful long name.  The Bonnevile Shoreline trail...

I photographed this waterfall many times but seeing it from the high point was a very different experience.

Waterfall

There is a hidden message in every waterfall.
It says, if you are flexible, falling will not hurt you.
